On Thursday, April 23, Circle of Friends shared a lunch outside in the courtyard for one of the first times this year. Club members sat outside to enjoy the nice weather and the company of friends. Two members are Kendra Ransower (10) (pictured right) and Joy Minor (6) (pictured left). ”I really love helping to make sure that everyone feels like they know their classmates here, and that they feel included. I also love spending time with Joy and making sure she knows she has a friend that brings a smile to her face,” Ransower says.

Seniors Kai Wilikins (12) and Gray Allen (12) were front and center on Tuesday, Feb. 24, as the Dayton Flyers took down No. 23 Saint Louis Billikens in an electric matchup. The crowd was on its feet, the arena was rocking, and every big play sent waves of red and blue through the stands. Gray looked around at the roaring crowd and said, “There’s nothing like this atmosphere. The energy in this arena is unreal. This is what Dayton basketball is all about.”
